Collaborative project: Optimization and field test of a direct injection system for site-specific patch spraying application of pesticides - subproject 2

Project


Project code: 2815IP005, JKI-AT-08-1135
Contract period: 07.04.2016 - 30.11.2017
Budget: 173,641 Euro
Purpose of research: Experimental development

The OPDI project was realized with the cooperation partners “Julius Kühn-Institut für Anwendungstechnik” and “Institut für Pflanzenschutz im Ackerbau und Grünland”. Herbert Dammann GmbH has successfully developed a system for the partial surface application of pesticides in a previous “BLE” project. In this project the System has been develop to a well handling. In addition, in the course of the project, the dosing accuracy and the effectiveness of the cleaning were repeatedly tested for their function. The dosing accuracy is in a very good range. The cleaning system immediately convinced vegetable farmers, who put a lot of emphasis on a residue-free cleaning, right away. At the end of the project, the JKI Institute for Application Technology in Plant Protection will now be included in the test procedure as an approved system for loss-reducing plant protection.
